LeBron James, Stephen Curry lead starters for 2018 NBA All-Star Game, will be first-ever captains

For the first time ever, this year's NBA All-Star Game will feature two captains picking their respective teams from a pool of starters selected by fans, fellow players and media members. After all the votes were tallied, the league announced the captains on TNT on Thursday night, and the guys who'll be choosing sides … well, you've seen a lot of them the last few summers. LeBron James of the Cleveland Cavaliers, the top overall vote-getter in fan balloting, and Stephen Curry of the Golden State Warriors, who led all Western Conference players in voting, will act as the captains in the 2018 NBA All-Star Game next month in Los Angeles.
